What? I Always Bring an Entourage!
Source: MSN Autos

...The seats are all comfortable, the kids enjoy the entertainment system, the fuel mileage is good enough for long trips (try using the cruise control at 65 MPH instead of your foot and you'll get the 25 MPG), and it is a very stylish looking vehicle, minivan or not. This is our family's third Hyundai and like other Hyundai families we have not had a single mechanical problem with any of them. Cons: Two things. The interior could be quieter (not that this matters much because my kids, the entertainment system, or the XM radio are blaring anyways) and volume on the DVD system is 10X weaker than...

Doesn't drive like a van!
Source: Cars.com

...Very well thought out and user friendly. The ride is wonderful and I don't feel like I am driving a van (unlike the other vans we test drove). The pick-up and smooth transition aren't as seamless as the Town and Country, but still very good and better than many other vehicles we test drove. I swore I would NEVER drive a van... well, I think I can still say that. This vehicle drives like a car and the design is terrific. I really enjoy driving this vehicle. My son loves the large side window (and that it roles down) and he loves he can get in and out on his own and walk around to help me get...

A Nice minivan - not the typical van for soccer moms...

...Looked at the new Volkswagen Routan and then finally came across Hyundai Entourage. Took it for a drive and immediately fell for it. Bought the car the very day. Great for its value. What I got in this model, I would have had to pay $15000 more if I wanted the same bells and whistles in a Toyota, Honda or Volkswagen. For those who like manual transmission, the SHIFTRONIC on Hyundai is GREAT! Great stability control as well. Cons: Yet in the break-in process and haven't found any cons yet. Well I wish they did a better job hiding the rear door sliders like the other minivans did. Not a big...

Entourage Limited.

...Cons: I wish the electronic backup sensors sounded sooner than they do. A console for storage with drink holder would have been better than the fold down tray between front seats. The front passenger seat should have a 6 way power seat the same as the driver side, not a 4 way, and the doors should lock automatically when shifted into reverse and unlock when put in park, and a keyless entry on driver door would be nice. Water will drip in on carpet or side wall in back when the tailgate is raised right after a rain or a car wash. Overall: Very nice and comfortable car to drive and ride in.Good...

Good car for the money
Source: Cars.com

..."It is a step down from a Honda or a Toyota, but saved thosands.
Have 19,000 miles and runs as well as the day I purchased it. The leather seats are a disappointment but something that can be tolerated, but overall the features are practical and easy to reach."...

..."After 2 years, less than 20,000 miles it quit and the service is horrible.
First the fuel pump broke, then the steering. The DVD works only when it wants.
The sliding doors get stuck. And it hasn't started in five days. The dealership can't fix it after four tries. Time to seek legal advice."...

Nice Minivan for the money.
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: Has good excelleration and stability. The sliding door windows retract which is a nice feature.
Good sound for factory speakers. Adjustable drivers seat is easy to operate.
Cons: We haven't found any cons for the vehicle at this time.
Overall: This is a good family vehicle. The 6 yr/60K warranty is the best available. Seats are comfortable and easy to remove and replace...

we love our van
Source: MSN Autos

...took it for a test drive and i took it home that day. if you have ever looked at the xle toyota some of those cost almost 48 thousand dollars. i payed half that and got everything i wanted/needed. Cons: well unlike my sosata there is only one problem here and its not a big deal to me. the power doors wont close on a hill? the dealer ship told me it was a saftey issue. so when you park on a hill you have to turn the power off to the doors and use them manually, still not a big deal to me. Overall: it really fells great on the road i get good gas mialage, it has enough power to pull everyone...

Fine grandmamobile

...Pros: Great handlling of the road. Went to Mich. from Utah, six people, car-top carrier, got over 20 npg.
Most miles at 80mph. I love this vehicle! Cons: I haven't found anything to gripe about, yet. Overall: It's not perfect, but it is a very good rig, particularly for the money-great value...

2008's best and worst sellers

Why should I also consider these?

There aren't many minivans, crossovers, or SUVs that drive as well as the sporty Mazda 5.

The 2008 Hyundai Entourage is larger than the Mazda, and it drives that way.

If you don't need the extra room, then the Mazda 5 is worth a test drive.

2008 Mazda MAZDA5

2008 Toyota Sienna
The 2008 Toyota Sienna minivan does almost everything right for the family, with a roomy, functional interior and great ride comfort, but there’s not a lot of personality.
